Thanks Kym, it’s a tricky one as it has characteristics of both species, the full barring and “shiny” back of the Shining, but in one photo a possible white eyebrow and dark line thorough the eye,
as well as, in least several of your photos, a hint of rufous in the edges of the tail as for the Horsfield’s. I suspect the former, but possibly a hybrid? Does anyone have a view? Regards Jack Holland
